Thankful

It is that time of the year again.  The time of Thanksgiving.  A time where many of us sit and think of all of the things to be thankful for.  I always have so much to be thankful for.

Family and friends, you guys are the main ones.  I am so blessed to have each and everyone of you in my life.  Thank you for all of the help and support you have given me.  I know it is somewhat vague, but you know in your own hearts if you have been there and helped or not.

My wife Darlene.  She is absolutely the best thing that has ever happened in my life.  I know I can always count on her.  She is my best friend.  An awesome mother, kick ass wife, and sexy ass biatch.  And she has given me a couple of great things to be thankful for.

The twins: Violet and Ryan have turned our lives upside down.  And its been great.  Sure you have your bad days, but the next time they smile or give you a giggle, or even look into your eyes as your are holding them in your arms you forget about all of those bad days when they were a PITA  "Pain In The Ass" (learned that one from my good buddy Travis)

The Meehan's deserve a special shout out.....  they have helped keep Darlene and I sane from babysitting for us to just bringing dinner over and holding a baby for a little while.  I know they think it is no big deal, but it is huge to Darlene and I.  Thanks girls!

I could write about all the things I am thankful about all day here.  House, job, health, etc....  I am truly thankful for all of these things.

I hope that over this Thanksgiving holiday you can take a little time to yourself and reflect on the things that you are thankful for in your life.  Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Post Op

First of all thank you to everyone that prayed for us last week while Darlene had her surgery.  Everything went great.  Darlene is doing well.  Still a little sore sometimes, but hopefully on the fast track of recovering!  Last time it was arthroscopic procedure.  This time it was actually an incision.  So there is more healing time needed now. The hardest thing now is Darlene being around the kids when she can't pick them up for a few weeks yet.  It is killing her that she can't pick up an hold her babies.  She does as much as she can, bathing, changing, feeding.  So she is at least getting some good time with them.  But it isn't the same.  She plans on being able to persuade the Dr. when she goes in for her check up to ease up on the lifting restrictions.  Nothing over 10lbs currently.  Violet is at 15lbs and Ryan at 18lbs!  They get so big, so fast.

Coming soon.....

The twins are coming soon!  As of right now Ju ly 15th is going to be their birthday.  We have scheduled the C-section.  Darlene is still really hoping that they will get head down and that she can experience labor.  She is a little bummed about the idea of a "scheduled" delivery.  I think it is just that part of us that wants to be able to tell out kids and others the story.  (So we were sitting around watching tv or at 3am I woke up and my water had broke so I told Jason to get ready and he stubbed his toe.... something like that I assume.)  I had read that sometimes when you play babies music in the womb is makes them move around and they end up with their head down.  So we have making play lists and Darlene has been laying down with headphones on her belly.  The twins tend to move quite a bit!  The other night one of them punched or kicked so hard the remote flew away!  It was amazing!  The twins actually have moved a li...

Ahead of Time

So due to some staffing issues the twins will be here no later than July 14th now.  Apparently the doctors schedules were off so now it is all figured out. A c-section is surgery.  I don't think that many people realize that fact.  It can be serious.  I know Darlene is pretty nervous.  I get nervous also.  Since we have been together I have seen her go through 4 surgical procedures.  It doesn't get easier at all.  This time she will be awake, but I will be there right next to her.  I hope that I can keep her comforted with all of the stuff going on.  And of course we will be meeting our twins for the first time. I am excited to just spend time with them and bond.  Looking forward to see what features they got from which parent.  Very nervous but excited at the same time.  I will have the camera there with us and documenting things as they happen.  I just pray that everything goes well and Darlene and the babies are...
